This movie is awesome and a must watch for any fan of Garo. The janky plot and detailed gruesome death scene near the beginning combined with the gothic setting gave me a Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust vibe.

Leon's and Alfonso's names are swapped. The names are also swapped in the synopsis.

The ending reminded me why I love Ema as a character.

This kinda makes me question the legitimacy of the reviewer and if s/he has actually watched the series. Should be no way someone makes that switch in every possible instance between two distinctly different chars unless something else is afoot(someone's prank, dub possibly mixing up names, etc.) =01.

Ema is really the linchpin of how a great female supporting character should be in these types of series. Because of her kit, she can give nearly as good as the Knights in some instances, and even better than them in others; she still has her vulnerabilities, but still capable of being self-sufficient in many scenarios. She knows when to be serious and can provide as much input as the guys, but still retains her feminine charms.
